Note di degustazione
Macerated for 30 days post-fortification. Pale garnet colour. Reminiscent of great old sherry with that acetone character. Then it's more like tawny port on the palate – dried fig and milk chocolate, still some primary fruit to give freshness and plenty of persistence. This will last indefinitely but is beautiful to drink now, and such an underrated style. (RH)

The seductive 1980 Maury Vintage features walnut-aged aromas but also plentiful cherry fruit, even after nearly 40 years of aging. It's fresher and more vibrant than the NV 40 Ans, if perhaps a touch less complex. Medium to full-bodied, it finishes silky and long.
The stunning 1980 Millesime is a compelling wine of magnificent complexity and delicacy. It reveals aromas and flavors of sweet pipe tobacco, cedar, dried molasses, as well as plums. It is pure, fresh, smooth as silk, and possesses and an extraordinarily long, voluptuous finish. This great wine can be consumed over the course of the next 12-15 years. Wine Advocate.February, 2002
